Story:

 Hi !  My name is Ted but everyone calls me "World Famous" because I travel 150 to 200 days per year with my job.  I'm a service manager for a company the builds railroad equipment.  I'm a 54 yr. old widower.  I was married for 20 yrs and my wife died in April of 2002.  My daughter and Granddaughter both live with me in Georgia.  I enjoy cooking and I do most of the cooking when I'm at home.  I have been a member for some time but have never gotten on the message board before or posted a profile so I thought it was about time!

I really enjoy some of the recipes that I have found in this group.  I do get to sample foods from all over the world, which is one of the benefits of my job. This is a fun site

Headline: Hello!


Story: Hi, I'm Rosie I'm 27 years old and have a 3 year old little boy named Bj. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for the last 5 years. Although I consider myself a "competent" cook, I'd really like to start cooking more. I only have a hand full of recipes that I use which has become extremely boring. I hadn't realized that we spent so much money eating out until we reviewed our budget last month. We are expecting to purchase a nice family car next month for our hopefully expanding family. And I was shocked to realize we had about $800.00 dollars a month disappearing a month mostly to eating out. I enjoy cooking just really don't know how. In the hopes of saving money and spending some well deserved family time around the dinner table I've joined!

Headline: Hello, I am Pat and in need of help!


Story:

I am a 55 year old busy lady working full time in management in banking.  No time to cook, but want to do so anyway.  In need of easy, quick, delicious one-pot meals to fix for my husband who is also in banking.  We are so busy, we sometimes grab a bite at 9:00 PM which is not healthy for either of us or just bring something home after work.  Want to cook, just don't have the time.  When we first got married in 1995, I did cook, but jobs got more involved, we moved, etc.  Just got out of the habit and now it is hard to get back.  Help!

Headline: hi all


Story:

My name is Aiele, and I am a high school teacher with three.....yes three....teenage boys.  Needless to say even if I wanted to cook I don't have much time, as teaching is a 24/7 job....and my principal believes school comes before family.....or so it seems since she tends to call on the  spur of the momment meetings frequently.  So I need help in finding good and quick recipes to feed the bottomless pits my sons have become. Thanks for letting me join.

Story:

I'm a 50 year old who had major open heart surgery and then a month later lost my left leg. Mama, Grandmama, aunt Bertie and Greataunt Mary taught me to cook starting back when I was 5 and you haven't been able to keep me out of a kitchen yet. LOL.
 
Now that I'm on disability I am always on the prowl for quick, CHEAP dishes to cook to make the food budget stretch. Glad I found this site and some of those great recipies.

Story:

I am the mother of 3 grown daughters and a 3 year old grandson, Jonathan. I have always loved being in the kitchen, baking and cooking. I am notthe greatest cook in the world but I do love to bake. I am putting together a cookbook for my family and friends that will hopefully be ready by spring. I work as a Customer Service Manager in a family owned grocery chain in the Ohio valley. I work a long days and don't have much time to cook or bake except on my days off. I have hundreds of cook books that I sit and read them as if they were a novel. This is a great site. I always look forward to the news letters. Thanks!

Story:

Greetings, I'm Dianne.   I'm a professional baker in a small town familyowned bakery. We bake everything we make from stratch. EVERYTHING.  I'm a kid at 47. My husband and I have 9 kids between us. Glen had 5 when I married him, I had 2. We have 2 more. I work nights so I could be home with our kids during the day and teach music. Our kids are now all in school. I am now the full time care giver for my 90 year-old mother-in-law. The only full-time care giver.  I sleep after my families supper. Around 5:00pm. Am up every night by midnight. Many nights earlier. I try to cook all our family meals with good stuff. And, real cooking. Breakfasts for kids can be homemade premade pancakes, waffles, french toast, as I'm usually do not get home until just before they leave for school. Glen and I have 16 grandchildren.
